Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 430: Michaela's Seal
After listening to Celine Shanks's story, Bai Shi looked at Schiff and was very surprised.

Originally, Bai Shi had decided to send Sif to the Shadow Land for a try, but he actually had no expectations for it.

I was thinking of walking the dog and letting it get some fresh air, but unexpectedly I actually found something for it.

Bai Shi touched Shiv's big head and took out a bone of the God-Eating Snake from the space in the disc for it to chew.

This was something Bai Shi brought back specially for Schiff.

Schiff was happily chewing a big bone, which made a crunching sound.

It had been craving for Michaela's abandoned body for a long time and would not let him gnaw on it.

Bai Shi recalled the information he had just received and began to ponder the deeper meaning behind it.

Although the information found by Schiff and Celine Shanks was not much, it was already very useful.

Bai Shi actually had some guesses in his mind about the fact that Michaela's aura was divided into two.

It is very likely that one of the auras is Torina's aura.

In Bai Shi's previous life, the Old Man Ring did not have DLC, and he could only rely on the information in the main body to gain the advantage of the Prophet.

In the known content of the game, there is not much information about Torina, and her relationship with Michaela is also very ambiguous. There are only two kinds of water lilies and a hint in the sacred tree.

But there happened to be a deleted NPC, that is, the "smell of wine" that Bai Shi met in Huasheng Snowfield before. However, his deleted text had a lot to do with Tolina.

As a heavy fan, Bai Shi naturally did not miss these deleted side quests.

Although I don't have a deep impression of it, in Rico's text, it is mentioned that Michaela and Torina are the same person.

Bai Shi has also been collecting relevant information at the border, and this can basically be confirmed.

It is reasonable to speculate that the relationship between them is probably the same as that between Queen Malika and Radagan.

In this case, Bai Shi can come to the conclusion that Torina and Michaela are each other's halves.

After all, as the pure golden bloodline born from the self-fertilization of Marika and Radagon, Michaela is also a god-man, and it is very likely that she will give birth to her own half.

Now we can explain the phenomenon of these two auras.

Since Torina is the other half of Michaela and they share the same fate, it is possible that Sif cannot tell the slight difference.

Even for an ignorant person, it is difficult to explain what is going on with the half bodies of these gods.

So the question now is how to deal with it.

Bai Shi thought about it and found that the easiest way was to go straight up.

There was no way to tell which side was Michaela, but it didn't matter.

In this case, why not just search both places from near to far?

Bai Shi looked at Celine Shanks and asked:

"I already know the general situation."

“The two separated auras should be Michaela’s half body.”

"It's normal that Shiv didn't recognize the special features of the God-man."

"Thanks to you and Shiv, I was able to solve a lot of trouble this time."

"So now, to what extent do you know the location of those two auras?"

Celine Sanks put her finger on her chin, raised her head and organized some words, then replied:
"Relying on Schiff's sense of smell, we should be able to find the corresponding place directly."

"But because you said before not to get too close to him, in case of any accidents..."

"So we were only able to lock down the general area and didn't explore further."

Celine Sanx turned and pointed to the blue sea of flowers they were in, and continued:

"The Blue Coast where we are now is the place where one of the auras points to."

"In fact, we just arrived here a little earlier than you, and we haven't searched thoroughly yet."

"The owner of that aura seems to have hidden himself as well."

"At least when I was hovering in the air, I didn't find anything unusual here."

"Maybe it's underground or something? Anyway, we still need Shiv to lead the way accurately."

Bai Shi nodded and decided to explore the nearby aura first.

Now that he is here, there is no need to worry about any safety issues.

"Let's start the search now, and let Schiff find the end of the aura directly."

"We will not stop until we find him, alive or dead."

Celine Sanx nodded, and they both looked at Schiff who was gnawing on a bone.

Shiv raised his head and wagged his tail at the two men, not knowing why.

Schiff quickly realized that it was time to work again, and he quickly got up from the ground holding the bone in his mouth.

Schiff ran in front of the two of them, indicated that he had received the order, and quickly started leading the way.

Bai Shi and Celine Shanks followed behind Shiv, and the group quickly moved towards one of the auras of 'Michaela'.

On the way, Bai Shi turned to look at Celine Shanks and asked again:
"Regarding the other place, where is the location you found?"

"Have you been there to observe before?"

Celine Sanx thought about it for a moment, nodded and said:

"The other place is a bit far away, and it was the direction we searched in the first place. It took us quite a while."

"It's almost at the other end of the Shadow Land."

"The first place we found following the scent was the area behind Shadow City."

"But it's flooded there, and Michaela's aura is still moving. I'm not sure what state it's in."

“We didn’t pursue the matter further in case we ran into Michaela.”

"Then we changed our route and moved from that area to here, looking for the second aura. Not long after that, we met you."

"Once we confirm the aura here, we can go back and look for it."

Bai Shi nodded and began to recall the structure of Shadow City, trying to find the flooded area that Celine Shanks mentioned.

In Bai Shi's memory, behind the Shadow City was the Shadow Viewing Terrace and the Shadow Tree that used to receive the dewdrops. Apart from that, there seemed to be nothing else...

No, Bai Shi suddenly remembered that there was indeed a flooded parish behind Shadow City.

According to Messemo, that was an abandoned area after the holy war, and the incarnation of the Shadow Tree after its collapse and madness seemed to be nearby.

Having some impression of that location, Bai Shi couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity.

Michaela is really brave and has great hide-and-seek skills.

Messermo was looking for him, but Michaela was hiding right under his nose.

Celine Sanx thought for a moment and continued to talk about the information worth mentioning during the tracking process:

"On the way of searching, we have almost visited most of the Shadow Land."

"Following the aura, we found more and more Michaela Crosses."

"After digging them out one by one and piecing them together, the number of bodies that appeared before our eyes was surprisingly large." "The number of bodies that had been abandoned even exceeded half of the body."

Upon hearing this, Bai Shi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The body has almost been abandoned, which means that Michaela’s progress in entering the Tower of God is almost complete.

Although he still didn't know how Michaela wanted to do it, Bai Shi didn't care.

All they had to do was to catch him and give him a good beating before Michaela managed to completely dispose of his body.

After learning about this situation, Bai Shi naturally perked up.

Just as Bai Shi was thinking about the route, he suddenly heard a dragon roar in his ears.

Bai Shi looked up and saw a black shadow flapping its wings and flying into the air among several huge stone ships embedded in the rock bed.

A highly rotten spiritual fire dragon appeared, circled in the air for several times, and then suddenly spewed out pale and cold spiritual fire towards Bai Shi and others.

The surging spiritual fire covered the entire land beneath their feet, and the blue sea of flowers was submerged in an instant.

The Spirit Fire Dragon seemed very satisfied with the effect and fell from the sky onto the ground.

However, before it could show off its power for a while, something unexpected happened.

Bai Shi held the dragon hunting shield in his hand and waved it casually, and the spiritual fire on the ground was dispersed by the strong wind.

Bai Shi had enlarged his body, and the huge shield firmly blocked the spiritual fire for himself and his group, without even a trace left on the shield.

In fact, with the strength of the two people and one wolf present, there was no need to resist this spiritual fire. It was just that Bai Shi was eager to try out the equipment.

He appeared in front of the Spirit Fire Dragon unharmed, and the living creature was stunned for a moment.

Looking at the spiritual fire dragon, Bai Shi under the helmet couldn't help but chuckle twice.

I just came alive after putting on the dragon hunting armor, just right.

Even though it was just a dead dragon, it was still worthy of being used as the first battle for this armor.

He raised the ancient iron meteorite sword in his hand, and the heavy sword, which was no less heavy than the big shield, flashed with dazzling white light.

Bai Shi leaned forward slightly, activated the combat skill 'White Light Assault', and swiftly rushed towards the Spirit Fire Dragon.

After launching this unique fighting skill, Bai Shi's figure was so fast that it was completely impossible to capture, and he appeared in front of the Spirit Fire Dragon in an instant.

With this powerful blow hitting the Spirit Fire Dragon solidly, the already thin skeleton was directly split in half by Bai Zhi, and the dazzling pure white exploded inside its body.

Under the light as bright as day, the body of the Spirit Fire Dragon exploded from the inside out and splattered all over the ground.

The rotten skull was thrown away, and the flickering spiritual fire in the eye sockets did not need to be finished off, and it flickered and slowly went out on its own.

Bai Shi walked forward carrying a greatsword and checked the remains of the spirit fire dragon.

However, a scale full of power slowly emerged from the gradually melting body of the spirit fire dragon.

Just like the spoils left by the Spirit Fire Dragon last time, it was also a piece of ancient dragon rock faded forging stone.

Picking up the extremely precious forging stone, Bai Shi's expression looked a little strange.

The last time was also a Spirit Fire Dragon. It was obviously not a powerful enemy, but the things it carried were inexplicably good.

Moreover, both times, the stones used were Ancient Dragon Rock Discolored Forging Stone, which seems to be related.

Celine Shanks seemed to see Bai Shi's confusion and expressed her own guess:
"Near here is the Spiked Mountain, which was the habitat of the flying dragons in the past."

"In the war between ancient dragons and flying dragons at that time, countless flying dragons died. This is probably where these guys came from."

"At that time, our king was also injured in the fight with Baelor, and many scales fell off."

"Perhaps it is because of the power of those scales that the dragons have the energy to continue moving after they die."

Bai Shi nodded, it was a possibility.

After all, the flying dragon is so huge that it is far beyond the reach of ordinary dead creatures. It is reasonable that it can only move under the influence of powerful scales.

But this is a good thing for Bai Shi, as the goal is clear.

If you are short of ancient dragon rock forging stone in the future, just find these spirit fire dragons and kill them.

Schiff approached the remaining bones of the Spirit Fire Dragon, licked them curiously, and then immediately dry-heaved twice.

After collecting the Ancient Dragon Rock's faded forging stone, Bai Shi did not stay any longer and the group set out again.

This time, there are new obstacles on the road.

Many soul hydras appeared on the ramp and attacked the people without any explanation.

These soul hydras are the larvae of soul jellyfish. They are originally docile creatures that will not attack on their own initiative, but will fall into a resonance of anger when attacked.

But at this time, many hydras already had red faces with anger, and attacked any creature that set foot here.

In the distance, there was a tall mountain monster standing on the top of the slope, raising a specially made large pot and throwing it at the few people.

Although there are quite a few enemies, considering the configuration of Bai Shi and his group, their strength is indeed not enough.

There was no need for Bai Shi to take any action, as Schiff rushed ahead and easily cleared the obstacles.

Seeing those creatures actively attacking, as if they were guarding, it also proved that there was indeed something ahead.

Schiff, Bai Shi and Celine Shanks finally arrived at the end of the blue coast - the top of a hill with a large number of heavy tombstones and a giant stone ship.

A huge crack appeared on the ground in front of the two people, spreading downwards to an unknown place.

Schiff turned his head to look at Bai Shi and Celine Shanks, then jumped directly down.

Bai Shi looked down and saw a number of protruding rocks on the edge of the abyss, forming a platform for Schiff to jump back and forth on.

A deep purple gravity emerged from Bai Shi's hand, covering the figures of the two and slowly sinking them.

Celine Shanks was slightly stunned when she saw this, a little uncomfortable.

Even in human form, Celine Sanx can fly with the two pairs of wings on her back.

But since the master is taking her with him, it naturally saves a lot of effort.
-
Bai Shi followed Schiff's figure and continued to go deeper into the huge abyss.

But soon, Schiff stopped in front of a sealed narrow passage.

In that narrow passage, a golden seal with the pattern of Michaela's pure golden tree blocked all the ways.

Bai Shi looked at the seal and slowly walked forward.

If this seal is broken, Michaela will definitely notice it.

But things have come to this point, Bai Shi has already grasped Michaela's movements, so it doesn't matter whether he knows it or not.

Because what will follow will be a unilateral attack by Bai Shi.

A flame of madness appeared on Bai Shi's left arm, and the arm with blazing fire reached out to grab the seal with all its might.

Under the insane fire that could distort space and even melt the golden tree, Michaela's seal had no resistance at all and was wrinkled, twisted and torn into pieces like a blanket.

Then the scene behind the cave seal also appeared in front of Bai Shi.

Inside the huge underground cave, there was actually a relic of an ancient civilization. Countless huge stone ships embedded in the rock walls filled the place, and Bai Shi finally realized that this was a cemetery.

In the deep and dark cave, dark purple mist filled the air, as soft as purple velvet.

It makes people want to have a deep sleep...give up the idea of living and go to eternal sleep.
